There have been extensive articles on this subject.
I don't have my links conveniently available at the moment,
but a brief search should turn up several  There are links
on the FreeBSD site and Onlamp and other places have extensive

pro Linux.   But most are pretty neutral, just giving information.

So, do a little searching.
